The original Howard Cosel and Don Merideth wasn't bad. Ironically Al Michaels started out as a Cincinnati Reds Radio announcer. Chris Colinsworth also started out in Cincinnati too. This was a Good Crew. No denying that
They would of made an interesting storyline had they made it to the Super Bowl. But they would gotten killed in the Super Bowl by the 49ers. That team was on a roll that year.
Even though he was past his prime, I loved watching Joe in his last two years in Kansas City. Many people said he was too old, his stats were too pedestrian and he couldn’t get the job done anymore, but then he’d turn back the clock in games like the MNF win against Denver and the overtime victory against Pittsburgh in the Wildcard round in 1993, showing he still had that Montana Magic
I'm sure only those from Kansas City and Miami, since they're the only folks who are going to get to see it on NBC (not that exclusive streaming service named after a rainbow bird that is so money hungry)... putting that Wild Card exclusively on a streaming service is like a repeat of what ESPN did with their cable only Wild Card (which coincidentally also involved the Chiefs). It's like the Chiefs kingdom is being targeted with these ridiculous experiments. I'm sure that NBC's numbers will go down when just about all of America (excluding Kansas City and Miami) will start ragingly throwing stuff at the TV when they get sent to Deal or No Deal instead of the Chiefs. Same for all those fake football fans that only want to see Taylor Swift in a suite box. Not worth an extra $4.99 for that.
Nope, not even close. Montana choked and arguably cost his Chris team the victory with his truly stupid inter emotion late in the game in the 4th quarter inside the opponent's 5 yard line! Jordan not so cool. Joe blunder. Lost his last game in clutch time, no less.
Marino’s release was just ridiculous. There was a play in the second quarter the announcers didn’t even comment on, but he whipped a ball out a receiver on the left that just had me shaking my head. Even when they replayed it in slow motion his release looked faster than most QB’s!
Things like that is why QB's say he was the best of all time... not the media, not fans.. people that play the game almost always say Marino was the GOAT
At 10:41 That’s just the pinnacle of precision. A crucial 3rd down play, meaning they punt if they don’t make it, and the drive is sustained because of a perfectly dropped pass by the quarterback even with the play well defended. Again at 34:16 by Montana, into coverage no less! So smooth!
Montana always had a sense of calm and cool in the pocket, & was one of the best, in terms of buying time for his receivers. If you get a chance, check out the final showdown between Montana and Elway on TH-cam, as well. Dierdorf mentioned it during the game.
This Dolphins team was probably Marinos last chance to get back to the Super Bowl talent wise. Once again the lack of a running game would kill their chances the following week
The Chiefs going into this year really needed to try to get some good WR help for Montana. It might have also helped to convince JM to play a 3rd year. I think a trade for a veteran using some of their draft capitol would have been best , but even if it was in the draft it would have been preferable to what they did do (imo). In 1994 draft the Chiefs used their 1st rounder on a RB Greg Hill and inexplicably, also their 2nd rounder on another RB Donnell Bennet. This is despite still having 4 years of Marcus Allen ahead of them & 3rd round back Kimble Anders already on the roster. The next 3 WRs taken after the Hill pick (25) were 29th overall Derrick Alexander (48 rec for 828 yds in Rookie Yr. ) 30th overall was Darnay Scott (46 rec for 866 yds in Rookie yr ) & 33rd overall was Isaac Bruce ( 119 rec 1781 yds 13 tds in 2nd year ). It’s very east to guess that IF KC had went WR in first round instead of RB they would have ended up with one of those 3 guys. Considering they were going RB in round 2 as well , it would have made sense to go WR In 1st round. OR depending on who might have been available in trade market , use the 1st and/or 2nd securing some good WR help for the guy who was used to throwing to Jerry Rice , John Taylor, and Brent Jones.
You're right Bruce was one of the Best. Darnay Scott went to the Cincinnati Bengals who is my team. I live in Cincinnati. I'm a Sports fan. For example I have/had a really unique situation. My oldest Niece was one of Ben Roethlisberger's trainer's at Miami of Ohio Redhawks (formerly Redskins). I knew that the Cincinnati Bengals and everyone else was in TROUBLE when the Pittsburgh Steelers signed him. He lost his 1st start his Jr. Year and won the rest. His Senior Year he went undefeated and his Rookie year he won 10 games in a row, maybe more than that. He was hurt going into the playoffs. Every Cincinnati Bengals Fan hates him. I can't because him and my Niece Megan were extremely close friends. Plus I was a Big fan of him at a Collegiate Level. I still rooted for the Bengals when Cincinnati played the Steelers, but I respected, not Hated Big Ben! Me and a nephew were at the Tampa Super Bowl when he beat Warner and the Cardinals. It was a Sea of Black and Gold. It was like being at a Steelers Home Game. I don't know why hardly any Arizona fans were there, but that's the way it was.
The argument on the greatest QB to play the game will always come down to personal affection. Although I am too young to defend that title with pre-70's greats. I personally rate Montana first, P Manning, then Marino. These three I believe brought the most fear to opposing defense. With that I say "The Best is yet to come" because players like Mahomes, Jackson, and Burrow are going to be amazing.
I was at this game with my dad, my uncle and his girlfriend. Was also at the 90' Wild Card game when the last-second FG by Nick Lowery landed like a yard short of the crossbar, and we were sitting right behind the goalposts, in row 2. I came out on video waving at the camera and still have it on a VHS tape. These were great games, but Miami got them both times.
@2:50:42 Al Michaels talks about Lamar Hunt winning Super Bowl 4 as the Chiefs owner... says it was a "long time ago".... When this game took place that was 25 years earlier.... this game took place 28 years before me writing this lol...I feel old
@ maurence Shipley i haven't heard from you in a long period of time i was just wondering if you had any more 1996 Miami dolphins hole season come soon and if had 1996 Tampa bay Buccaneers coming soon on your you tube channel am haveing a blast and having fun watching these football games and yes am having and all so these football games to i was just wondering if you had any more 1996 nfl season of the Miami dolphins i was just wondering i love watching your video i was just wondering if had more comeing can you please tex me back so i know you have any more video coming or not i would love to watch them still if they come and you are so awesome and cool i love them all so far your video ❤🤠😎
I'm 47 and a lifelong 49ers fan, so needless to say, I'm a huge Montana fan. Jerry Rice is my all time favorite football player and Steve Young is my favorite QB. I never put Young above Montana regarding whos better, Montana was always on top of my best QB ever list. Now in 2022, I just can't honestly say Montana should be above Bradey, that dude deserves to be called the GOAT of QBs. I don't love that fact, but it's true.
What about Brady? You might ask. Again, personal preference. Well, Brady, like Bradshaw, Elway and Young, have rings to propel their arguments, but they all had a lot of talent on both sides of the field help their cause. In Brady's case he had a lot of luck beginning with the "tuck rule" fiasco and two blown certain victories by SB opponents and questionable cheating accusations. So for me he doesn't even crack my top 10. Sorry Patriot fans.
@@chandlersbryant4047 Dude, I'm just saying... If you intellectually believe that Brady is the GOAT then your speaking from the heart. The same as guys who think their mom is a Saint. But forget it dude. Sorry if you can't see the correlation.
Marty Schottenheimer will always be the worst, bar none, playoff coach in the history of professional sports!! The proof is in this video. He had some of the most dominant teams in the regular season, and like clockwork, he would single-handedly destroy hope! This isn’t just my opinion, it’s the truth.
the niners did joe dirty when he got healthy and they decided that young was still their starter, they should have either cut joe or traded him he lost almost 2 years at a chance to win a 5th sb as a starter
Montana suffered a season ending elbow injury in the 1991 preseason. He wasn't healthy enough to start the 1992 season, Young started and excelled winning MVP. Montana lost two years mostly to injury.
God the 'Phins missed out this season.. if Stoyanovich makes that damn kick in the next week after this game.. there's a great chance they play in SB 29.. at home... against a 49ERS team that was very beatable.. instead an inferior Chargers team went in and got blown out.... sigh

If his teams needed a first down on 3rd or 4th down and short yardage, Brady's success rate in getting that first down is off the charts as is his ability to score a td in close on a qb keeper when there is short yardage. His toughness is legendary.
I remember playing in this game. It just wasn't our night. Yet, it was a thrill playing with Joe Montana.

Marino best passer ever! If he only had a good consistent defense And any running back threat this team would have been scary.
They would of made an interesting storyline had they made it to the Super Bowl. But they would gotten killed in the Super Bowl by the 49ers. That team was on a roll that year.
Aaron Rodgers is the best passer ever
I like Rodgers but Marino did it a much tougher era rules wise for QBs. Marino would throw 55 td a yr easily in today’s touch football NFL.
@@iamtman1 💯%

At 1:21:26 Montana/Marino equally balanced combination of 26-31 for 340 yds, 3 tds, 0 Ints in the first half. Tie game! Veritable GOATs!

I'm sure only those from Kansas City and Miami, since they're the only folks who are going to get to see it on NBC (not that exclusive streaming service named after a rainbow bird that is so money hungry)... putting that Wild Card exclusively on a streaming service is like a repeat of what ESPN did with their cable only Wild Card (which coincidentally also involved the Chiefs). It's like the Chiefs kingdom is being targeted with these ridiculous experiments.
I'm sure that NBC's numbers will go down when just about all of America (excluding Kansas City and Miami) will start ragingly throwing stuff at the TV when they get sent to Deal or No Deal instead of the Chiefs. Same for all those fake football fans that only want to see Taylor Swift in a suite box. Not worth an extra $4.99 for that.
Good game.
Montana is the greatest legend ever.
Nope, not even close. Montana choked and arguably cost his Chris team the victory with his truly stupid inter emotion late in the game in the 4th quarter inside the opponent's 5 yard line! Jordan not so cool. Joe blunder. Lost his last game in clutch time, no less.

WABC-TV from Saturday December 31, 1994

what is really interesting is how much kc loved former sf qb's

Wild to me that there was a point in sports broadcasting where production didn’t think it was necessary to have score and time on the screen
Fans paid attention to the game, and had patience. Today they have the attention span of a gnat.
They said, "Time is essential right now. Montana 38"....Mean while, Brady is almost 44 and he just got his 7th SuperBowl...
Two different eras.
This was Joe Montana's retirement party.
Every now and then, I come back to this. It’s sad what Stephen Ross has done to the Dolphins.
We'll have to wait him out,lol,( he's around 80)
This Dolphins team was probably Marinos last chance to get back to the Super Bowl talent wise. Once again the lack of a running game would kill their chances the following week

Marino is a classic example of why u don't judge by rings, anyone who knows football, knows he's better than Bradshaw,( and he has 4 rings),
shoulder pads are huge back then.
